Doomsday Roulette

Last night, after these newly advanced evolvers returned, their mindset changed.

Some of them didn't rest as everyone expected but engaged in quite a few 'things'.

These things, without exception, were not good.

A few evolvers returned home and killed people, claiming that when they were ordinary, someone had robbed their food, beaten them, and even persecuted their families. Now that they had become evolvers, they wanted to take revenge.

Others stole from others and even insulted two women.

In addition, some of them, after becoming evolvers, were unwilling to take risks anymore and wanted to stay in the safe base, forgetting the promises they made before becoming evolvers.

Out of thirteen newly advanced evolvers, only seven showed up today, almost half of them were absent.

Jia Min went to look for them, but the result was simply two words: not coming!

Some had a bad attitude and even threatened Jia Min, telling him to get lost or they would teach him a lesson.

Having never dealt with such matters before and accustomed to following Ye Zhongming's orders, Jia Min held back his anger and returned.

"Don't know how to handle it?"

Ye Zhongming looked at Jia Min with dissatisfaction written all over his face.

"I told you, from now on, this base is under your control. Everything you've been doing these days has been about how to build the base, but have you thought about how to handle those who disobey you?"

"I..." Jia Min opened his mouth, truly unsure of how to handle such matters.

"Remember, in this world, there are fundamentally only three ways to deal with problems," Ye Zhongming raised his voice, ensuring everyone around could hear.

"Law, interest, force."

"To put it simply: reason, money, guns." Ye Zhongming looked at Jia Min, "In the apocalypse, there are no laws or reasoning, so you don't need to care about the first one. That leaves the latter two."

"We used interest yesterday; we rewarded them with Evolution Potions for their contributions and gained their promises. But now they’ve broken their promises, leaving only one solution."

Ye Zhongming pointed to the gun in Jia Min's hand, "Use this."

"You are the future master here. You need to let all the residents know: those who follow you will prosper, and those who oppose you will perish!"

"Don't think it's cruel; this is the best solution. Now, Li Qiang, Little Tiger, Xia Lei, go find these people and tell them: Either come here and hunt with us, or go die!"

The surroundings fell silent, and the people sensed a strong bloody smell in the young man's words.

"Remember, if anyone dares to resist you, you must kill him immediately; otherwise, you'll be the one to die."

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ye Zhongming leaned against a building while others waited quietly.

In the center of the open space were the chosen thousand people, surrounded by curious survivors, all waiting for Jia Min and the others to return.

A gunshot rang out from the North District, and everyone knew something was happening there.

Half an hour later, a few people returned. Jia Min's hands were noticeably trembling, but the bloodstains on his face gave him an unfamiliar aura.

Ye Zhongming knew what that was; it was a transformation that would eventually happen in the apocalypse. He had merely expedited Jia Min's process.

Behind the few people were four others, one of whom had a swollen face but kept his head down, showing no dissatisfaction.

Because he had just seen how the discontented one had his head blown off.

"Don't think this matter is over. Don't think that just because you are here, you can offset the mistakes you've made. Perform well today; if you cannot satisfy me, remember that what I can give, I can also take back."

After coldly saying this to the four individuals, Ye Zhongming waved his hand, and the team set off.

The exit of the East District was where Ye Zhongming had been yesterday, near the feed processing plant where the Iron Corpses were born. The evolvers moved out first, quietly clearing the surrounding mutated life forms to create enough space.
